Crock Pot Broccoli Rabe and Chicken with Beans

Yesterday I came home from work midday, needing to get two 15-page papers written, knowing my fiancee would not be home in time to cook dinner for us.  I was desperate for something quick and  easy, preferably something I could throw in the crock pot and forget about until dinner time.  I did not have any chicken or beef stock on hand.  However, I created something that did come out delicious, albeit "too healthy" for the fiance.  Here goes:

To create the broth, I poured in a third of the juice from a jar of marinated jalapenos along with two cups of water, a bay leaf, salt and pepper, some steak seasoning, a can of red beans with most, but not all, of the liquid drained, some cooking vermouth, half a bottle of marsala wine, and a couple dashes of hot sauce.  I chopped up a handful of the jalapenos, a bunch of broccoli rabe, 5 cloves of garlic, and threw in a package of chicken tenderloins.  I cooked this on high for 4 hours.  Note to self, next time I would probably throw the chicken in once everything else had been cooking for two hours.  The chicken did get slightly dry but all in all, the taste was delicious.  I cooked some wheat penne pasta to the point of aldente and threw everything on top of that, garnished with some Parmesan cheese.  Bon appetit!  The fiancee said the sauce was so yummy he would use it to marinade chicken.  I think I shall save him some ;)
